About The Owner

I lived in Sedona for 18 yrs.My business there was a jeep tour company called Time Expeditions.My partner was an archaeologist/anthropologist we created a cultural

and natural history tour to a twelfth century cliff dwelling and sold to Pink Jeeps. I left Sedona for the Pacific Northwest and bought a beautifual property and created a Bed and Breakfast called Small Island Farm and Inn. Moved back to Prescott where my family all resides and started this little vacation property on and 1.5 acre.

The Owner purchased this cottage in 2007
Why The Owner chose Prescott

I had my home adjacent to this wonderful possibility. Did some renovation made it beautiful

and it makes for a nice lifestyle.

What makes this cottage unique

The property is so close to everything, Downtown and all the amenities. Markets close by and

hiking available through the woods. It's a perfect location and yet so secluded feeling.

It's a little oasis in the heart of the town. I have 5 dogs, 2 cats and a dozen chickens.

It's a littl farm life yet not far from all the necessities.

An Absolutely Wonderful Vacation

5 of 5
Submitted: September 11, 2008 Stayed: August 2008
My wife and I stayed here over Labor Day weekend; The House is full of charm and tastefully decorated. It is nestled in the woods just a little off the road which adds to the serenity. It was cool in the evening so we had the windows open and you could hear the gentle stream nearby and a few crickets which made it even more peaceful. The host greeted us warmly and made us feel at home. The home is absolutely clean and well maintained. Fresh Towels and linens are provided. There is even a television and DVD player with a few DVDs and music CDs provided for your enjoyment while you are there at no charge. There is a washer and dryer for your use with full kitchen and even the spices and herbs were provided. An unexpected treat was the host also provided fresh eggs from her hens every morning. We enjoyed some of the local restaurants including Arizona’s Historic Palace Saloon & Restaurant (since 1877). We also enjoyed the historic district of Whiskey Row and its shops. There are plenty of sites to see nearby and returning to the cottage on Walden in the evening was a great place to relax. We will definitely stay there again.

We had a lovely weekend stay in the cottage on walden. It was clean and contained everything we could have hoped for. The fresh eggs and cream for my coffee was a very nice touch, as was the seasoned iron skillet for cooking the eggs! Our dogs were welcomed in the cottage, and played safely in the fenced yard. We highly recommend the cottage, and Nancy as a great host!

The Perfect Vacation Cottage

5 of 5
Submitted: May 25, 2011 Stayed: April 2011
This is the first time ever that we have been on a month long vacation
and haven't been anxious to get back home. The reason for that is this quaint, very clean and homey cottage and Nanci with her wonderful dogs. She is the perfect hostess, there to welcome and socialize but also giving you your own personal space. We are country people and this place has the definite feel and appeal of country but is actually very close to shopping and conveniences.The town of Prescott is your idea of a perfect home town. Events going on almost every weekend, very friendly people and best of all very dog friendly. There is a wonderful dog boarding place called "Run a Muk".
And did I mention that the weather is perfect?? I would definitely recommend this " Cottage on Walden"
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Pet-friendly, Adventure Seekers, Sightseeing
Owner's Response: Thanks Helen and Joe for being the "perfect" guests also. What a treat to have such lovely people who were so kind and generous and my idea of real good country folk who I would want to be my neighbors.

Super Dog friendly

5 of 5

One of the biggest problems in finding a vacation rental is one that takes Dogs. Walden cottage solved this problem for us. The cottage is in a great location. It allows easy acces to downtown with several routes to get there. The cottage was comfortable. The cottage is an old adobe style build and the walls are thick. We brought several sheets with us to cover some of the furniture which allowed our spolied family pet to feel right at home. The furnishings are laid out well for the size of the cottage. Everything we needed was provided. The back yard has plenty of seating and as a bonus a very nice hammock hanging between two large trees makes it all the better. The cottage owner (Nanci) lives next door. If needed she is available but we never felt crowded in anyway. We saw deer on the road outside the cottage. We also had a very large Owl that liked to perch on the fence next door both in the daytime and at night. He never made a sound. I hope we can return in the future and enjoy the cottage and the great location. Just to add a bonus we drove to the Grand-Canyon in two hours. Had a nice day and easily drove back to the cottage without feeling like we had traveled all day.

The Cottage on Walden - Home away from Home

5 of 5
Submitted: September 17, 2010 Stayed: September 2010
This was my second stay at the Cottage on Walden and it felt just like 'home'. In addition to being a very gracious and accommodating host,
Nanci is also a dog lover. My two border collies and I had a great time during our nine day stay.

The cottage is very cozy, comfortably furnished, tastefully decorated, squeaky clean and you would be hard pressed to need something that
Nanci hasn't already thought of and provided. Every amenity from books, CD's, DVD's, Wi-Fi, cable TV, stereo, washer, dryer, Yardley
soaps for the bath, a super comfy queen bed, and some kitchen appliances that I don't even know. The list goes on and on....

The property is fully fenced so it's perfect for my dogs who spent much of their time lounging outside on the grass. One of the things I like
best about the cottage is how peaceful and quiet it is. You are in the pines, close to town but not 'in town'. There is a lot to do in and around
Prescott, something to please just about anybody. My dogs have a blast hiking around some of the nearby lakes, Lynx Lake and Goldwater
Lake are their favorites and just minutes away.

I rarely write reviews but this place is a real Gem. I would recommend it to my friends and family and anyone looking for a peaceful, quiet
getaway or just looking for a great place to vacation and explore Prescott. Nanci is a pleasure to deal with, always available should you
need her but never intrusive. I've already reserved the month of June next year and can't wait to get back.

Owner's Response: I so enjoy having repeat guest it tells me I am doing something just right. Having had this guest not once but now it will be three times gives me great pleasure. The dogs are just the sweetest critters and this guest treats them with such loving care and is such a gentle and kind soul. Makes me love what I do. Thanks for choosing this gentle place.
